Sturgis East Celebrates First Golf Win, Teams Gear Up for Championships

Sturgis East is buzzing with excitement after securing their first victory of the season in high school boys golf. The team triumphed over Rising Tide, marking a much-awaited win for Coach Jim Barrasso. In a sport where every shot counts, Barrasso feels strongly that no team should go through a season without tasting victory.

However, Sturgis East, along with their rivals Martha’s Vineyard and Dennis-Yarmouth, has met their match in the Cape Cod School Boy Championship. This exciting event is set for October 10, and while these teams won’t continue beyond this championship, the competition has certainly sparked some enthusiasm.

A Season Full of Challenges

Martha’s Vineyard wrapped up their season after a tough loss to St. John Paul II, but not all was lost. Two standout golfers from Martha’s Vineyard, Jacoby Light and Macallan Moran, have once again qualified for the Division 2 South Sectional. This marks their second consecutive year achieving this great feat, adding a silver lining to their season.

Meanwhile, Dennis-Yarmouth may not be advancing, but the team is carrying a positive attitude as they reflect on their hard-fought season. Their spirits remain high, setting a great example for the league as they look toward next year.

A Tight Race for Points

Over in the power rankings, teams like Bourne, Monomoy, Cape Cod Academy, and Sandwich are still in the running for qualification. The competition is heating up as these teams face pressure to secure their spots. The Cape and Islands boys golf rankings updated last Friday is a must-follow for any golf fan eager to see how things shake out.

The Warriors, having recently ended a remarkable 26-match unbeaten streak, are still in a solid position. Despite a loss to St. John Paul II, they achieved a weekly record of 2-1. If they clinch their last regular season match against Sandwich, they’ll be in fantastic shape to snag the divisional title.

Rivalry and Team Spirit

On the other side of the field, the Lions are riding high with their sixth consecutive win. They are in hot pursuit of a share of the Atlantic Division title, closely competing with Nauset. If Nauset pulls off a victory against Sandwich, the Lions will find themselves just a match behind in this thrilling chase.

The Lions are not just eyeing the divisional crown; they’re also dreaming big with aspirations for a state championship. They’re fuelled by a talented senior class, which adds to their fierce competitiveness on the course.

Star Players Shine Bright

Leading the squad is captain Colin Gleason, who has been setting the standard for exceptional play. With his guidance, the team aims to reclaim their title at the Division 1 South Sectional, making them a formidable opponent.

Shifting gears, the Red Hawks are looking strong as they prepare to defend their titles at the upcoming Cape Cod School Boy Championship. The Whalers have only lost one match in their last five outings and are also targeting a path to the Division 3 South Sectional.

However, head coach Sam Herrick has expressed concerns about the team’s consistent depth on the course. As the Whalers enter tournament mode, it’s a crucial time to ensure every player steps up their game.

Navigators Are in the Mix

On a lighter note, Coach Craig Glidden is optimistic about his Navigators, who are very close to qualifying for the Division 3 South Sectional. With standout performances from Alex Saunders and others, the team’s potential is shining through, indicating that they could make some noise in the upcoming weeks.

As teams prepare for the championships, it’s shaping up to be an exciting end to the season. Fans are on the edge of their seats, eager to see who will rise to the occasion and claim their place in golf history.
